Certified ExpertA.They should be hardy in your area, so I'm not sure why the top growth died. However, English walnut trees are usually grafted, so the suckers coming back from the roots are from the rootstalk, so you don't want to propagate the tree from those.
You can remove it by cutting down the dead growth and applying a stump killer.Was this answer useful?00 - Asked by

July 23, 2022Q.Walnut Tree And Fertilizing In The Spring.
Thank you for letting us know that the Walnut trees should be fertilized in the spring, not during the summer. One of the trees is planted in the lawn. When should the fertilizer for the tree be applied; before or after Weed and Feed for the lawn is applied?

Certified ExpertA.You need a grass-free area around your tree that extends to the canopy. Cover it with a couple inches of mulch. Your tree should not be getting your lawn fertilizers and weed killers. Especially avoid getting weed and feed on it. It has weed killers that could harm the tree.

September 14, 2022Q.When To Cut/prune A Walnut Tree
Thr tree is very old and large/tall but very healthy. I need to reduce the size. It is now September and the tree is full of fruit so I am reluctant to cut at this time. Am I able to cut in mid to late October? I am situated in south west France so that time of year is relatively warm.

Certified ExpertA.Generally, you want to cut closer to the end of dormancy, but while the tree is still dormant. This article will help:
